<p>Our foundations do not actually need finishing powder to &#8216;set&#8217; them in &#8211; you can use them perfectly fine on their own.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.earthnicity.co.uk/shop/category/mineral-finishing-powder">Earthnicity Silk Glow Finishing Powder</a> gives an extra subtle glow (not shine!) to your final application when used lightly all over the face with a large powder brush.</p>
<p>You can use it as a highlighter by packing it on to a smaller brush and brushing it along your cheekbones, the bridge of your nose and under your eyebrows.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>No kabuki? No problem!</strong></p>
<p>When it comes to applying <a href="/shop/category/mineral-foundation">Earthnicity mineral foundation</a>, there&#8217;s no reason to limit yourself to the usual &#8216;swirl-tap-buff&#8217; technique of applying mineral foundation. Our foundation doesn&#8217;t need a lot of buffing to apply &#8211; so you are not restricted to a kabuki brush. One alternative is to use a flocked foundation sponge.<br />
<span id="more-7"></span><br />
<strong>Why use a flocked sponge?</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>When you want heavier coverage</li>
<li>It&#8217;s less messy compared to using a powder or kabuki brush</li>
<li>It&#8217;s faster and more convenient</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Applying Earthnicity mineral foundation with a flocked sponge</strong></p>
<p>On cleansed skin, apply either moisturiser or primer first. Wait for it to absorb fully. The moisturiser step is especially important if your face is very dry. If you have very oily skin, or if you want a very matte look, you might want to skip the moisturiser or use a very light moisturiser.</p>
<p>Tap some mineral powder on to the jar lid and press the flocked sponge on to the powder. Dab it on all areas of your face and blend it evenly out,  make sure to cover your forehead, cheeks, the sides of your face and temples, your chin, your nose, the sides of your nose (including the hollow near the inner eye), under your nose, and under your eyes. If you want your eyeshadow to last longer and not crease, you will want to apply the foundation on your eyelids as well. Lastly, apply along your jawline and blend towards your neck. If you want more coverage, repeat the steps above. It&#8217;s always best to start with light coverage and build it up.</p>
<p>If you want to apply the foundation wet, dip the sponge in distilled water first, squeeze it out and dab it on to the mineral powder before applying on to your face.<br />
The effect is something that is akin to liquid foundation.</p>
<p>Tip: Spritz your face with distilled water (Evian spray works well for this) afterwards if you want a &#8216;dewy&#8217; look.</p>
<p>Be sure to wash  your flocked sponge with soap and warm water at least once weekly.</p>
